It really sucks playing a melee DPS, putting tons of time into your toon's gear, and then being pretty clearly out-DPSed by a basic summoned pet :/

Casters scale hard with levels, melees scale hard with gear. A 50s rogue with epic and proper buffs can easily hit over/around 100 dps (double the pet) and a 50s monk with epic and SoS or tstaff or double fists can easily sustain 60ish dps (still more than a pet). I think pre-epic (levels 50-54 is when i started looking at parses in KC+seb) rogues can easily do 60ish dps with buffs. You just need to put time into the right gear on a melee.
If anything I'd complain about the strength of charm pets. They typically do about as well as rogues, but even then its not worth complaining because charmed pets have a chance to completely fucking delete the caster whenever it feels like. A properly geared up and buffed charmed pet can do upwards of like 200 dps vs undead mobs though, so I suppose that is a bit strong given the utility the caster can provide as well.
